It would be even nicer if it could be made solution-agnostic, simply 
stating that UA are encouraged to allow users to override CSP either 
through UA-preferences or through third-party added functionality. If we 
come up with a third thing to supplement addons and bookmarklets, the 
suggested clause will run into an enumeration problem (it's hard to 
future-proof explicit lists). That said, putting a clause like this back 
in has my vote, even if phrased as above.
